V20 Cordless Brushless Axial Blower features a powerful brushless motor and is equipped with a 4.0Ah battery allowing you to take on the tasks at hand. The V20 battery platform is compatible with CRAFTSMAN V20 Outdoor Equipment and Power Tools. This kit includes 1 4Ah battery and a charger for a ready-to-use setup.
What does brushless mean for the CMCBL720M1, and why does it matter for a leaf blower?
A brushless motor has no contact brushes to wear out, draws less current for the same output, and runs cooler during extended use. In a blower, that translates to longer runtime from the same 4Ah battery compared to an equivalent brushed model, and less heat buildup over a full yard session.
How does 350 CFM compare with CRAFTSMAN's brushed 700 series at 380 CFM?
The 720M1 rates 30 CFM below the peak of the brushed 700M1, but delivers that output more efficiently throughout the battery charge. Brushed blowers draw harder early and fade as the pack drains; brushless motors maintain more consistent performance across the charge cycle.
Is the CMCBL720M1 worth the premium over the brushed 700 series?
For seasonal light use, the brushed 700 series covers the job at a lower price. If you run the blower frequently — several times a week across larger areas — the brushless motor pays back through longer battery life per charge and better long-term durability.
What does the included 4Ah battery support in terms of runtime?
Craftsman does not publish a specific runtime figure for this model. A 4Ah pack at brushless efficiency typically covers an average suburban driveway, deck, and walkway in a single charge. Larger lots or continuous back-to-back sessions may require a second V20 battery.
Does the CMCBL720M1 use the same V20 battery platform as CRAFTSMAN's other outdoor tools?
Yes. The V20 battery and charger in the CMCBL720M1 kit are cross-compatible with the full CRAFTSMAN V20 outdoor and power tool lineup. Any V20 battery you already own — 2Ah, 4Ah, 6Ah — will operate this blower.
